Chapter 31 - Kang Wang Zhao Zhuang
Zhao Chen didn't know how many things he had just thought of in an instant, including the historical books he had read in his previous life, the online books he had read in his previous life, some television dramas, and so on. This also included everything he had seen and heard during this half a year in the Imperial Palace, including all the various knowledge he had learned in the past six months, including the Way of the Emperor that Li Gang had taught him! At that moment, his nervousness had reached its peak, and the thoughts in his mind had gone as far as they would go. In the end, he could not help but blurt out the words he had just said!
At that moment, besides a sigh of relief, he even felt pain in his head! In that instant, his thoughts had been overloaded!
After Li Gang heard this, he let out a sigh of relief in his heart. At the same time, he was also exceptionally happy! The Crown Prince was only ten years old, but he was smart and wise to such an extent. To be able to think of a way to resolve such a dangerous situation, it was truly unbelievable! This was the Rising Sun's master of the Song Dynasty, he definitely could not allow the Song Dynasty's Rising Sun master to die here!
"His Highness the Crown Prince is right!" Liu Guangshi, you killed His Highness the Crown Prince, with so many people watching, at that time, the Emperor Kang would not even acknowledge that it was his order, he would just blame all the crimes onto you, and you would not be able to escape death! Even if you have the Liu Jiajia, the entire world will not tolerate you. What about you? " Li Gang said.
"This... "This..." Liu Guangshi stood there at a loss of what to do. He just wanted to curry favor with the Emperor Kang, but he had never thought of this problem!
"Now, not only can you not kill us, you should also pray that we can live well! So many people here have seen you encircling and killing us, if we were to die in the vicinity of Xiangzhou, I am afraid others would blame it on you! " Li Gang said again.
"What do you want?" Liu Guangshi was feeling extremely anxious right now!
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss. He even guessed that this might be the Emperor Kang's plan to kill two birds with one stone! At that time, when he killed Zhao Chen, the Emperor Kang would be able to successfully ascend to the throne. However, because he killed the crown prince, it would be difficult for him to live in this world.
Liu Guangshi came from an extraordinary background, but he was truly an idiot! At this moment, he was actually sweating profusely while riding his horse!
"General Liu, as long as we can leave the Xiangzhou successfully, this matter will have nothing to do with you! You have seventy thousand elite soldiers under you, even if you disobey his orders and don't kill the crown prince, the Emperor Kang won't punish you! Don't you think so? " Li Gang said.
Liu Guangshi was silent for a moment, then gently nodded.
"General Liu, we are leaving now …" "Before we go, I want to borrow a few horses from you. What do you think?" Li Gang said again.
Liu Guangshi coldly snorted, and could only agree to it!
After Liu Guangshi ordered some people to bring a few horses over, Li Gang and the three brothers got on the horses! Zhao Chen had been rushing this entire month, and only the last time he rode with Wang De, he did not know how to use a horse. It was still the wooden youth who carried him forward!
Everyone slowly walked away!
Liu Guangshi rode on his horse with a worried look on his face! Originally, he wanted to curry favor with the Emperor Kang, but now, not only did he let these people go, he even gave the warhorses to these people! It was all his fault. He could only blame himself for saying those words to Li Gang to expose Zhao Chen's identity as the crown prince, to let the surrounding Liu's soldiers know that the youth was the crown prince, and that he wanted to kill his highness, the crown prince! If he hadn't said anything in the beginning and had come up to kill these people, there wouldn't have been so much trouble!
"General, you should have sent someone to stop them! Although we can't kill them, we can capture them and hand them over to the His Royal Highness and let him personally punish them! That way, we will be able to complete the orders of the His Royal Highness and won't have to bear the responsibility of killing the crown prince. " Just then, one of the generals beside Liu Guangshi said.
"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Liu Guangshi said angrily.
"General, I... I only remembered it now! " The high-ranking officer said.
"Damn it!"
Liu Guangshi was hesitating on whether he should continue chasing Zhao Chen or not, whether he should care about this matter, when the sounds of horses galloping came from behind again. A dozen people walked over!
The one leading them wore a light yellow robe. His appearance was somewhat scholarly and weak, as if he were a scholar. However, his eyes gave off an abnormally firm feeling!
Seeing him arrive, all the Liu's soldiers s immediately dismounted, and even Liu Guangshi followed along!
"General Liu Guangshi greets His Royal Highness!" Liu Guangshi knelt down and said.
"Liu Aiqing, please get up quickly!" The man's voice was soft.
"Your Highness, this lowly general is guilty … Let that person go! " Liu Guangshi said.
"It's fine, I've already heard about it … It could only be said that the man was so crafty at such a young age … However, in this chaotic world, cunning didn't have much use. Strength was the most important thing! "I've even arranged for troops to come ahead. They will definitely be able to kill him!" This person was the Song Dynasty's Ninth Brother, the Song Chin Zong's Ninth Uncle, Zhao Chen's Ninth Uncle! If history had not changed and Zhao Chen was caught by the Jin Army, he would be the only one who escaped. He could naturally inherit the position of the Song Dynasty in name, because no one could compete with him for it anymore! But now, the Crown Prince of the Song Dynasty had escaped from the hands of the Jin Army. This Crown Prince was the legitimate ruler of the Song Dynasty, the heir to the.
Hearing Emperor Kang's gentle voice, Liu Guangshi heaved a sigh of relief!
"General Liu, I am prepared to hand over all the troops from Hebei over to you for your control! What do you think? " The Emperor Kang said.
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Liu Guangshi was overjoyed!
Initially, he was worried that the Emperor Kang would punish him, but not only did the Emperor Kang not punish him, the Emperor Kang had treated him with such kindness. However, he did not think that the defeated soldiers of Hebei would not be able to fight at all! Many of the Hebei's army had lost their weapons along the way. What did he want with an army like that?
Emperor Kang looked into the distance, thinking about what he should do in the future! In his opinion, Zhao Chen was already dead!
Li Gang, Zhao Chen and the three brothers headed towards the west.
At the moment, everyone was riding their horses in silence.
After a while, the middle-aged man asked, "Are you really Lord Li and His Highness the Crown Prince?"
"That's right!" Li Gang nodded.
"Liu Guangshi... Why did the Emperor Kang want to kill you? " The middle-aged man said in disbelief.
"Only by killing the Crown Prince can the Emperor Kang ascend the throne!" Li Gang revealed a cold smile, and said.
"His Royal Highness is actually so rebellious?" The middle-aged man thought in a daze. The other two didn't say anything.
"I have to thank the three warriors this time!" Li Gang said again.
"You're welcome! His Highness the Crown Prince was the king in the kingdom, the two emperors were captured, and his Highness the Crown Prince would inherit the throne! As citizens of Song Dynasty, we should be loyal to the crown prince. This is something that we should do, what need is there for us to thank him? " wooden youth said.
"Brother, you're right!" The middle-aged man said.
Only the 17-18 year old young man curled his lips, disagreeing in his heart! He knew that his second brother was the most 'stupid' of them all, but he paid particular attention to patriarchal ethics! In his opinion, Zhao Chen was only ten years old, and she looked like a beggar right now. He regretted helping the crown prince. It was a pity that he knew his second brother's personality. Since second brother knew this was the crown prince, he would definitely wholeheartedly follow him! Although his elder brother was older, he had always listened to his second brother! Although he disapproved, he valued brotherhood. From today onwards, he would have no choice but to follow this beggar-like crown prince!
"I still want to confirm your identities!" The wooden youth thought for a moment, then suddenly said.
"This is the Imperial Jade Seal!" Zhao Chen took out a Imperial Jade Seal from his bosom and said.
"What?" The three were stunned once again!
Today, they had already encountered countless unbelievable things, but now, they had encountered another one!
Imperial Jade Seal, what is that? This was the symbol of the Great Land of the Rivers and Mountains, the symbol of Heaven's Mandate! In the time of the three kingdoms, Sun Jian had obtained the Imperial Jade Seal and was about to return to Jiangdong! Yuan Shao obtained the Imperial Jade Seal and immediately became emperor! Yuan Shi was also the same! Now that the Song Dynasty's leader is holding onto the Imperial Jade Seal, no one can deny that his destiny is with the crown prince!
The speed of the wooden youth's horses slowed down. He took the Imperial Jade Seal and observed it carefully in the darkness of the night!
"Second brother, is this really a Imperial Jade Seal?" The young man swallowed his saliva and said.
"That's right, this is a Imperial Jade Seal! This piece of jade was definitely He Clan's jade. Below the jade were the words' To be ordered by the heavens, to live forever '! The engravings around this area were exactly the same as what his teacher had told him back in the days! Furthermore, other than the Imperial Jade Seal, that sword was actually Emperor Taizu's personal sword, the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword! Furthermore, we heard what Liu Guangshi said just now. I was rude! Right now, he was running for his life. He couldn't dismount from his horse and kowtow! When we reach a safe place, we will kneel and worship the crown prince! " wooden youth said.
"No need to be so polite!" Zhao Chen said.
"The Emperor Kang dared to assassinate the Crown Prince. I will definitely kill this Demon! " wooden youth's gaze turned cold as he replied.
"May I know your esteemed names?" Li Gang asked.
wooden youth was about to speak, but his face suddenly changed, and he said: "Not good! There are even heavy soldiers in front! "
The soldiers in front had been lying in ambush for who knows how long. The encirclement was extremely large, to the point that it was impossible for them to escape when they discovered it! In a moment, countless soldiers were charging towards them!
